After a fulfilling data science career, my new role drained my passion with little growth and setbacks. How have you overcome burnout and regained motivation?
hey swiftcoder15, even i found sticking with side projcts can reawaken some passion. stepping away from the data grind reminds u why u started. sometimes break and new angles can be the magic u need.
In my experience, burnout can sometimes be a signal that a change of pace is needed. Rather than pushing through exhaustion, I found that carefully restructuring my workload and dedicating time to learning something new within the field helped me recover a sense of purpose. Taking on different types of projects allowed me to view challenges from a fresh perspective. This period also offered an opportunity to reassess my professional goals and remind myself why I chose data science in the first place, ultimately restoring motivation.
hey swiftcoder15, i totally get it. sometimes shifting your focus just a bit brings back that spark. have u tried exploring new projects or even a creative break? what tiny change lately sparked a bit of joy for u?
hey swiftcoder15, maybe try blending some out-of-the-box projects with you usual data work? i found that mixing in a quirky hobby can subtly reawaken that spark. what fun, offbeat project vibe do u think might add some zest to your routine?
